9-year-old's Winnie the Pooh laptop confiscated by police in Finland

Police in Finland confiscated a 9-year-old girl's Winne the Pooh laptop after the computer allegedly was used to illegally download music, according to a report on Slashgear.com.

Shane McGlaun of Slashgear says in his blog post that "record companies and other groups have gone entirely too far in trying to protect copyrights for music and other files illegally traded on the Internet."

He says Finnish police turned up at the child's home with a search warrant, looking for the laptop. The girl's father was hit with a 600-Euro fine, which is about $774. He has refused to pay.
